Rawr!
Okay, so... like... School! I payed today. Costs a LOT, oy. But ees good. I feel good about this. I know I can get the grades, and stick it out. Not like I haven't done this before! Not really looking forward to all the peripheral classes, so I'm hoping I can credit out of them with my ITT transcripts. Won't know for a few weeks, yet.
Work! Still sucks. Sucks a little less. Worrying about it less, that's for sure. Things are starting to come together; management is paying a little more attention and we have a few more people. So, fuck it. Let them worry about it.
Entertainment! I rented all three extended edition Lord of the Rings films from Netflix. They came today. Fellowship disk 2 is not here. I am not happy about this. Dunno what to do about it. I bought Gargoyles seasons 1 and 2.1 a month ago, waiting for season 2.2. Even if they continue after that, I'm done with it. Started getting crappy after 3, and 3 wasn't that great itself. Finishing season 2 will nicely set me up for the new Gargoyles comic (by the show's creator), which picks up after season 2. So, yay! I'm watching Shrek on my gameboy (well, DS, but same thing), and I keep putting it into a loop of the Welcome to Dulac song. Donkey starts running towards the post saying "let's do that again!" then I press backwards and it starts over! It's very weird. But funny!
Gaming! I'm almost RDM75 on FFXI. We XPed on trolls, on Mount Zhayolm in the Empire. Oddly good XP, despite a certain level of resistance to me (I'm used to enfeebling things a little easier than them, and their elemental types are weird; Sleep lands easy on them, though, and Aspir's been working great despite my gimped dark magic skill, so they're definitely weak to Darkness). Certainly a hell of a lot easier than aura weapons, and better XP than decos, even with the occasional dispel-fest on troll red mages and paladins. The rangers are -really- easy to keep asleep, because when they wake up they usually attack with a slow-use, low-damage ranged attack. The unarmored types seem to be Wind/Light element-based, and the armored types seem to be Fire/Light element-based. I can't wait to try out puks!
